He messes up so many chances when he gets into good positions. Not sure how he got a 3 year extension

Somehow is playing worse than Rooney and Carrick.
He's shit. Along with pretty much the rest of them.
He's our best winger and he's still shite.
It's quite amazing that in Valencia and Young we have to full-backs who play full-back because they were too shite to play as wingers. But yet everyone acts surprised when they're shit going forward.
We have a lot of these types of players...good enough for a 6th place club, but nowhere near good enough for a team who is supposed to be one of the biggies.
People love him because he tries hard but today is an example of why he gets so few assists every season.
Wouldn't get into any lg the top teams. To have a player like him that can't get past his man in your starting line up says a freaking lot
Young and Martial have been our only genuine threats. Better than Memphis last game. Where the feck is this criticism coming from?
So many mistakes on both ends but his flank is where our only threat comes from.
His defending for Vardy's goal was absolutely shocking. Surely we could see that move coming a mile off ?
I agree. Young is the only one threatening to put anything into the box.
It might be his flank, but it's not him doing the threatening. He's terrible. God knows why so many pine for him on here when Memphis plays badly. He's just as bad - oh no, wait, his crosses "look" better.
They do. Bet you hated his cross to Schweinstieger for his free header at the start of the second half too.
Yeah, knew that'd bite me on the arse. Meh, still think he's shit. And he is.
Crosses for the sake of crossing. He'll hit 1 out every 10 or 15 he attempts.
I thought he was pretty good today. His crossing was put into good positions and unlucky that there was no one there to put the ball in the net. But he did get caught out for the first goal.
As bad as he's been since the Moyes Era.
Abysmal.
Abysmal.
He occasionally looks threatening and dangerous, but then just whips in an awful cross to remind you he's shit.
He's as average as they come really. The quality we lack up front is absolutely ridiculous at the moment.
The quality of crossing from this winger is absolutely shocking.
It was probably the worst I've seen him play for a while but he played that whole flank on his own. That formation was a farce.
If we going to challenge or win the premier league again players like this can't be starters for us.
He'd get us at least 5 assists per season if we lucky. He just crosses it without looking for a man.

What the feck is the point of crossing into a good area? It's as pointless as it gets.
TBF its not his fault that we rely entirely on him to create chances. He's always been an inconsistent crosser and passer and we've known this for a while. The fact that most of our attacks seem to go through him is ridiculous.
Average footballer, good guy.
He is our best winger
That tells you everything about the quality we have on the wings.
Our main source of chance creation is Ashley Young.

Somehow managed to play worse than Rooney today. That's impressive.
The blind crosser, he never actually tries to pick out players. Just areas of the box where there is not necessarily anyone.
Shame he can't get past his man to save his life.
Nope, it's not. van Gaal takes most, if not all, the blame.
This is said after every game he plays, our players can't cover each square inch of the box so I think it's more important to find a United head with the cross than to put it into space where there is noone.
Angel di Maria was poor last season but he managed to find players so it is possible.
Again I thought he was good today apart from the goal. I wafch different footy to you lot.
There's not much he could have done with little support on the wing and facing two defenders.
In the past 3.5 seasons he has something like 8 goals and 10 assists in total for us. It's not just bad luck that no one ever gets on the end of his crosses.
Yeah, I think everyone got that by now.
He got in to good positions quite often but didn't show enough quality to be effective.
That's the thing: he can sometimes look dangerous, but almost always finds a way to feck it up.
This.
19 assists in 130 games for United.
I've said it before in here. His delivery is often decent, but his crossing isn't very good (if that makes sense). Happens a lot where he puts the ball into the box, sure it may have been dangerous if we had a player there, but more often than not he's finding no one, or a defender.
